I lived to tell about it...

Another *ALMOST* Walmart trip gone bad. We went to Pville Walmart as we usually do on Saturdays. See that is the only time I can really shop there. Yes while I realize we are taking a chance by going there on Saturday, I don't have another option. So we find a register to check out on and it's one of those hidden ones where you go all the way down the aisle and pass others standing in line to get in the short line. Well it was of course slowly progressing (just my luck) and this guy in a motor wheelchair comes in between 2 lines of people side by side to squeeze in front of me to talk to the cashier. He was a worker there. So I moved back a little to give him room to talk to his co-worker. Well after he left we naturally started moving up. Then jumps this girl just right in front of us as we were moving up to start to unload things. I just said Ma'am we have been waiting in line and were moving up to check out. She gave me this look from hell, looked at the cashier then left. Markus said my face turned so red. I was so freakin pissed that she even hesitated when I told her we were basically here long before she was. WTF. Me and ***** girls don't get along at Walmart. I'm just saying. Markus kept saying, man you and Walmart. Ha! Needless to say the ***** cashier didn't say two words to me. You know they all like to stick together. I hope by now you understand the *****s. Anyway I was trying to get across to the cashier that she never even said hello to us. You know how they ask you those questions on the key pad? Well I answered one that said was your store clean today? I told Markus when he asked what I pressed that it usually says did your cashier greet you today. Ha! She still didn't talk to us. Whatever!

A Sweet Surprise

I was giving my MIL our old digital camera that we don't use and realized that I had not cleared the pics off the memory card. So I did this last week so I could give her the bigger memory card to use. Well I was just buzzing in IPhoto to see if there were any pics we had not uploaded to the computer. Surprise surprise there certainly were and ones I haven't seen in almost 2 years. In 2007 we went to the Pennington Balloon light up thingy with some of our dear friends who have since moved and we miss terribly. These are what I found on the memory card. I'm so thrilled.

Helen, Heber & Dixon

The balloon light up. Very cool but hot if you are close up.

We were so hot. It was in August!

Helen & Heber

Hope yall enjoyed these Helen & Heber. I can't believe I found these. So glad I didn't let Markus delete all the pics off the card first off. Miss yall. Luvs! This sure made my day :)

A Quote Worth Sharing

This was mentioned at church and I thought it was worth sharing...

“Interest never sleeps nor sickens nor dies; it never goes to the hospital; it works on Sundays and holidays; it never takes a vacation; it never visits nor travels; it takes no pleasure; it is never laid off work nor discharged from employment; it never works on reduced hours; it never has short crops nor droughts; it never pays taxes; it buys no food; it wears no clothes; it is unhoused and without home and so has no repairs, no replacements, no shingling, plumbing, painting, or whitewashing; it has neither wife, children, father, mother, nor kinfolk to watch over and care for; it has no expense of living; it has neither weddings nor births nor deaths; it has no love, no sympathy; it is as hard and soulless as a granite cliff. Once in debt, interest is your companion every minute of the day and night; you cannot shun it or slip away from it; you cannot dismiss it; it yields neither to entreaties, demands, or orders; and whenever you get in its way or cross its course or fail to meet its demands, it crushes you.” (In Conference Report, April 1938, p. 103.)

*As you can see it was given over 70 years ago as council and still holds true today. Boy they know what they are talking about, huh?
